  1. Even the single poll that Yang used to make that claim had Bernie with higher support amongst Republicans and independents. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2019/oct/24/andrew-yang/andrew-yangs-claim-support-among-trump-voters-rate/

  2.  @mehwhyausername1  There's nothing for businesses to circumvent with a VAT. It's built in that they get to reclaim their input VAT. A VAT successfully generates revenue in those other countries, but it doesn't successfully tax corporations, because that's not what it's designed to do. It's a sales tax collected in stages with all the business stages getting paid back. "If you’re GST registered, you can claim back the GST you pay on goods or services you buy for your business." https://www.business.govt.nz/tax-and-accounting/basic-tax-types/gst/

  3. He doesn't even understand how his key tax proposal actually works. His followers are obviously idiots, helping Amy get delegates, that she can hand to Biden when she drops out. Definitely not a progressive movement. A VAT is a sales tax collected in stages with all the business stages getting paid back their input VAT. It's specifically designed to NOT tax businesses in order to avoid double taxation. Anyone promoting a tax that doesn't tax businesses as a way to tax businesses is speaking gibberish. https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/business/vat/what-is-vat_en
